I went to the Walmart in Houston, Texas off of 1960. The experience was one that I will never forget and it was indeed traumatic. Customers surrounded the merchandise and blocked the aisles. There was no security that I could see. A woman screamed before 5am and then a riot broke out. I attempted to basically run for my life and secure a safe place away from the frenzy but no where was safe in that store. If my friend had not been there with me, who happens to be male, I would not have gotten anything at all. People were running around the store in total madness and one guy ran his basket full of a huge HDTV straight into my left side. I still have not recovered. I will never go to Black Friday events again and I have horrible flashbacks when entering Walmart. Needless to say, I try not to go to Walmart at all and instead go to safer stores such as Target and Kohl’s.

If someone beats someone with a hammer, you don’t sue the company that made the hammer!

Does it suck that Wallmart only puts a few items on the shelf, sure. But to use that as some sort of reasoning behind crushing a person under your feet, is PATHETIC.
